CHAPTER XVI
Nearly a month of hard work, hard work, forbearance, frustration and grievances have been exchanged for a much higher income than I imagined. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt was the first money I made in my life, enough money to live on until I got my next job. With this money, I have extremely mixed feelings.
Many things that felt very difficult and difficult at the time have passed, and they have passed. At first, I thought I couldn't get over the hurdle, but in hindsight, it may be light.
I'm even starting to miss my work in a textile mill. Without the harassment of the yellow foreman, most of the people are still friendly and kind. This job requires no thinking, although it is hard, but the pay is not low, and it is close to home. I still have some regrets about losing this job.
But fortunately, there seems to be a saying: if God closes a door for you, it will open another window for you.
This sentence was quickly fulfilled to me, and this window was opened for me by Yang Renjie.
One morning, when I opened the door and wanted to go out to buy a newspaper and see if there was any work I could do, I saw Yang Renjie standing hesitantly in front of the door, as if considering whether to knock on the door.
We haven't seen each other since he last left in a rage. I was a little stammering and didn't know what to say, and his expression was unnatural.
After being silent for a long time, Yang Renjie blinked and asked, "Won't you invite me in?" ”
I silently turned to the side and let him into the room.
Yang Renjie still sat on the same chair he sat on last time. He placed a basket in his hand on the table. There were piles of colorful fruits, and the whole room was immediately filled with a sweet fruity aroma.
"Thank you for the fruit." I walked over and picked out an apple from inside: "It just so happens that there is nothing to entertain at home, so I will borrow flowers to offer the Buddha and wash an apple for you." "With that, I'm going downstairs to fetch water.
He stopped me: "This fruit is bought for you to eat, you can keep it for yourself." I ...... last time Look at your face is so bad. You've been working too hard during this time, so it's better to supplement with some nutrients. He took a closer look at my face through the light from the tiger's skylight, and said with some relief: "However, it seems to be much stronger than before, and my face is a lot more ruddy." ”
I took a few days off and was already fine. Hearing what he said sincerely, I couldn't help but be moved in my heart, so I couldn't help but make a straight face with him again: "Is it true that I am in good health, just this one apple?" If you don't lose your temper with me, I'll be much better. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I regretted a little, how could I mention these unpleasantness in a dignified manner, and the tone in these words seemed to be a little coquettish. Thinking about this time, my face involuntarily burned a little.
After listening to my words, Yang Renjie not only didn't care, but apologized to me happily: "I admit that I did something wrong last time. I left you like that, and I was depressed for days. During this time, I was always thinking about you, and I didn't know what happened to you. You're so pale and thin, I'm afraid you're going to fall ill. Speaking what was in his heart, he seemed to feel much more comfortable, exhaled and further explained: "But you also think about it for me, in such a hot weather, I ran around, and it took me so long to find your home, out of concern to persuade you, you just snatched me like that, and didn't pay attention to me, and everyone would be unhappy." ”
I think he was in a hurry just now, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead. The sunlight was mottled into patches of light by the skylight, and his eyes shone with a familiar light. He looked at me with a smile, like a close playmate who grew up together, and his heart gradually softened.
"You're not angry with me anymore, are you?" He asked, looking tentatively at my expression and smiling even deeper: "I know that you are a very generous person, different from those delicate ladies who love to lose their temper. ”
"I don't know what those ladies are like." I snorted and said, "Why don't you tell me about it?" ”
"You really don't know?" Yang Renjie exaggeratedly said: "It's just that you have to be unforgiving, grasp the mistakes of others, and you have to apologize again and again, otherwise you won't give up." ”
His words were funny, and I couldn't help but smile. When he saw me smiling, he was even more happy and asked, "Are you going out?" I'm glad I came early, otherwise I wouldn't have seen you. ”
I had to explain to him, "I'm going to go out and see if I have any chances to get another job." My job in a textile mill...... I don't do it. ”
"It's better not to do it." If it weren't for me staring at him, Yang Renjie would probably have to high-five and celebrate: "That work is too hard, I'm afraid I will burn my body in the long run." Don't think you can hold on, some things are only visible when you get older. ”
I sighed and said, "It's not a good job, but it's a way to make ends meet." Where can I be as long-term as you think I am now? Anyway, I can't be as happy as you are when you lose your job. ”
He smiled and said, "Maybe you'll be happy after listening to me." To tell you the truth, I didn't come for nothing today to bring you good news. ”
"What's the good news?" I'm a little curious.
He sold Guan Zi, crossed Erlang's legs and said, "I have good news, why don't you entertain the young master with tea and wine?" ”
I smiled and said, "I don't have good tea and good wine here, but a good meal is okay!" I deliberately put on a fierce expression and said, "Do you say it!" Don't say it, I think you're just begging for a beating! ”
Yang Renjie pretended to be scared and said, "Okay, okay, you're really fierce enough!" I said no, yet? He paused again and said solemnly: "Actually, the way you look still reassures me a lot." You have to learn to protect yourself. I'm afraid that you will go out and be bullied, no matter what, you are also a girl. ”
His words were soft, but his tone was serious. And that kind of solid concern suddenly seemed to touch the most sensitive nerve in my heart. I could see that he was genuinely worried about me, sincerely, and did not ask for anything in return.
He seemed to be frightened by the deep affection in his tone, and quickly disguised himself and changed the subject: "I think there is a job that is quite suitable for you." There is a café there on La Fide Road in the French Concession. Their house is short of a hostess, would you like to give it a try? ”
